Being in the privileged situation of having a travel agent that caters the creme de la creme in the…read moreentertainment world, I am spoiled with fantastic rates in hotels, so I usually skip the motel ones - I stayed for 70 and less percent at the Wyndham Grand, the Radission Blu - all considered to be of higher status that this chain.
This time, they were all sold out, and so I checked out both the Motel Ones in Salzburg. I received exactly what I thought what I would get: a stylish but small (and very clean) room, with an OK breakfast. Whatever they had was fresh and tasty - but I like fresh eegs and the little extras that cost more - and are unavailable here, hence the OK.
If you travel on a budget and want a clean nice room with an attractive socialise area - this sure a a good pick. If you expect a MOTEL as the name would suggest, you are totally wrong, this is a hotel and does not remotely resemble a motel (maybe that was the revenge to the America's hot dog chain "Wiener Schnitzel" (where they sell hot dogs and do not even know what a schnitzel is ;.)
Again, a nice clean and stylish place to stay. And if you have the choice: The one at the Elisabethkai has by far the nicer location than this one in the Alpenstrasse.
